Description
A grand, romantic saga of two noble Russian families and a multitude of lives swept up in the violent tumult of the Napoleonic Wars, Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace is considered one of the preeminent literary works of all time. Tolstoy originally completed this novel in 1866, but it was not until years laterafter the author had doubled the book's length with philosophical and historical meditationsthat the great novel was published. More than half a century in the making, the result of extraordinary dedication and pains-taking research, here is Tolstoy's original version of this timeless classic, which never made it into print during the author's lifetime.
Now readers can enjoy the epic and unforgettable story as the novelist originally intendedwith its subtly different characters, dialogue, and endingand experi-ence anew the breathtaking masterpiece that has inspired love and devotion for generations.
